Came To Cry Poem by Andetria Taylor

Am writin dis becuz dis how it felt to c sum1 so strong cry.my dad cried becuz on 11-30-09 at 11: 50 i almost passed away.am currently in tha hospital on an IV machine, bt am nt afraid,14 years seems lyke a pretty long lyfe to me, so i guess am ok.

my throat closed up,
i culdnt breathe,
i came so close to dien,
tha man ide neva seen weak before,
actually started cryin,
'it hurts me to c u lyke dis',
an his head dropped low,
he shed sum tears an wuz quickly out tha door,
i wuz laughin thru tha tragedy,
datt culd have ended my lyfe,
den tears swelled my eyes,
it felt lyke half of me died,
becuz how culd it b datt a man so strong,
is tha man datt came to cry.
